Spyder x Veuve Clicquot Collaborate

Boulder, Colorado – In what proved to be a bold and harmonizing pairing of brands and colors, Spyder Active Sports, Inc., the Colorado-based maker of premium technical ski apparel, recently joined forces with luxury champagne brand Veuve Clicquot for a photo shoot atop Aspen Mountain at The Little Nell “Oasis” Pop-Up Champagne Bar. Amidst the rugged textures of the custom wood bar built by Colorado’s lifestyle artisans The Public Works, models mixed bright, poppy colors from Spyder’s Fall 2012 Women’s line with Veuve Clicquot’s signature ‘Yellow Label’ glow.

“The setting that day lent itself perfectly to what Veuve Clicquot aspired to accomplish with the shoot,” said Russ Rowan, Spyder’s VP of Sales and Global Marketing. “We had a fun group of people, crystal blue skies, the snow capped Maroon Bells, a beautiful wood bar that The Public Works built for The Little Nell in
celebration of Veuve Clicquot’s annual Clicquot in the Snow event.

“From a color perspective, Spyder’s Fall ’12 line just snaps into place with Veuve Clicquot’s well known, classic aesthetic. The success of this photo shoot is no doubt reflective of the bold identities of both of these complementary brands. We’re definitely looking forward to further collaborations in the future.”
